Freeload: Memory Tapes, “Bicycle”

story THE FADER

Memory Tapes is the union of Weird Tapes and Memory Cassette, which was kind of basically the same thing in the first place, it’s just got a married name now. “Bicycle” is the first single and it’s the best thing we’ve heard all day, with siren vocals, crystal-castle synths, and a bounding bassline that fits somewhere within the summer’s futura-disco and goth-revivalist memes, but not trying to be either or anything, really, except awesome. We want to stand at the top of a waterfall and sing along with the echo breaks while growing a unicorn horn, or at the very least listen to this 24 more times in a row. Unnnggghhh it’s so good!
